Ceist:164 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development if his attention has been drawn to research by the UK Pesticide Action Network which has found that 520 species of insects and mites, 50 plant diseases and 113 weeds have become resistant to the pesticides meant to control these; and if, like the farmers in the Falkland Islands he will put in place a strategy to make Ireland a wholly organic producer.
